Tell us what’s happening:

Your code so far


// Only change code below this line
var a;
var b;
var c;
// Only change code above this line

a = a + 1;
b = b + 5;
c = c + " String!";

You need to use = assignment operator.
Read this chapter: https://javascript.info/variables. Do not get confused that they use let instead of var. Right now, just think of them like synonyms.

I don’t understand, can you please explain in more detail with examples.
Thanks

you declare a variable with var myVar
you initialize a variable with var myVar = 9

you need to initialize the 3 variables, give them a starting value

Hi @uzodimma,
initializing variables simply means assigning values to the variables. The challenge is to assign the given values (5, 10, “I am a”) to relevant variables. As an example,

var a = 5;

Try to initialize the rest of variables like that. :slightly_smiling_face:

i cant get that either. what is wrong with writing var c = ''i am a;'' i really need the answer I’m about to lose it :frowning:
